Obama’s Campaign Finances Revisited

I’m shaking my head, and trying not to waste perfectly good rage over this by howling and breaking things.
Michael Luo has been writing about Obama’s campaign donations, from the beginning. Mr Huo and I even had an email exchange over Obama’s reporting. I sent my concerns about donor counts in June, 2008. So I wonder why we had to wait for the NYT to give us the truth after the election is over? If I can find this stuff over at the FEC, why can’t they? (more…)

Jobs, Jobs, Jobs, and bridges, and roads, and schools and energy! The first time in years, whoever the next Transportation Secretary will some work to do, and maybe some money to do it with. I’m skeptical however, that we are looking at a proposal something like the WPA. I think there is a better than average chance the next Economic Recovery Plan will looks like some T. Boone Pickens, or Bechtel business-plan. You think I want privately run toll roads everywhere else? I guess we’ll see:

If there is one thing crazy ads that the supporters of Prop 8 did, it’s remind us what a stranglehold they’ve worked to maintain in the last 30 years over education. Here in California we were treated to a never-ending tra, la, la, la, where, if you believed it, unspeakable things would happen to public education and your children; future training to turn all your little ones into OMG, that which remains in moderation, qu**rs!!

So did you see Obama’s first televised weekly delivery? Needless to say in the interest of modernity, it was on uTube. This means, of course, a whole bunch of us will not have privy to his pearls.
